Rose's Rescue

A small group of volunteers..no paid employees. Our dogs are in area foster homes or they are housed at Rose's..in a heated pole building with a "bedroom" (toddler beds, a chair and a radio..so they can keep up on current events) with a dog door to a small fenced area to potty in through out the day and night. Then they get to play in a four acre fenced in area and swim in the pond every day too! We do not have a "shelter" per se and only under special circumstances are any of our animals "kenneled". They are very well socialized with people and other animals, which makes it much easier to know their temperaments. We do NOT take owner surrenders. But we will do courtesy posts for pets that are vetted and in need of homes. OUR MISSION STATEMENT Rose's Rescue is an all breed rescue for dogs and cats. We primarily concentrate on local pound rescues as we feel these are the animals in the most dire need of a second chance. We are committed to finding the best possible home for each, and every animal that comes into our rescue and we are available to help with any training or behavioral issues for the life of each animal. Rose's Rescue requires that any animal adopted through our organization be returned to us if for any reason the family is no longer able to care for them. Rose's Rescue is also committed to educating the public on the importance of spay and neuter, routine vaccinations, heartworm protection for dogs, and aids and leukemia testing for cats. According to the Humane Society of American over 4 million dogs, cats, kittens and puppies are killed each year. It is our goal to some day see no adoptable pets euthanized.Every two months, Rose’s Rescue chooses a few special candidates for a new class of dogs to be trained at the Trumbull Correctional Institution near Warren, Ohio. While enrolled in this program, each dog will be trained by selected inmates and overseen by professional dog trainer Bill Oliver (www.customcaninecompany.com) who generously volunteers his time with this laudable project. Upon completion of their training, cell dogs will have learned important socialization skills, have mastered basic obedience commands, and be fully housebroken. They will also be taught tricks to entertain their future families and friends, such as sitting pretty, playing dead, and give a high five. All dogs can be visited (by appointment and accompanied by a Rose’s Rescue representative) while at the prison. They can be adopted upon graduation, or occasionally sooner if a dog has done exceptionally well and is deemed ready to leave before the class is actually finished. All of our current cell dogs or graduates are designated as such in their individual descriptions in the “Our Adoptables” section of this website. If you’d like to get a jump-start on training your new pet, consider adopting a Rose’s Rescue cell dog!

Meet Peggy Sue

Peggy has been with us for several months and we are still looking for just the right adopter for her.  She was much loved before in a previous home, but has endured a difficult past.     True to her breed, her energy can be rather intense at times, especially when she’s focused on chasing a ball or engaged in similar play.  She can also be a champion couch potato, content to be curled up near her human and under a blanket, if possible.     Peg gets along with the other dogs in her foster home, but she can be a bit much for them sometimes.  She might enjoy a canine playmate, but could need an adjustment period for that; she may not be a good fit with every dog, especially another dog with a strong personality.  She cannot share a home with a cat, and is also probably not compatible other small animals either.   An ideal adopter for Peggy would be someone who has experience with Boston Terriers or a breed with a similar disposition - a Boxer, for instance.  A fenced yard is desirable, and depending on the home, may be required.  She can and would easily knock over a child, with no harm meant, but could hurt them just the same.     Now for the good stuff!  She’s crated while her foster mom isn’t home, but she’d probably be fine if she was allowed to be out and about inside the house on her own.  She’s never chewed or been destructive in any way, and rarely has potty accidents.     She loves to play ball, as already mentioned.  She also loves chew toys, rubber squeaky toys, stuffed bones - all of the usually items that most dogs enjoy.  At night, she wants to sleep right beside her human on the big bed.  During the day when playtime is done, she wants to sleep right beside her human on the couch.  Peg is happy to go along for car rides and even gets to accompany her foster mom to work sometimes.    Peg is a very good dog.  We really want to find a home for her where she can thrive and be her silly, spunky self.  She’s overcome some hardships recently, and she certainly deserves a chance at a brighter future and a happy ever after.   If Peg sounds like the one for you, let’s get the ball rolling!  You can easily fill out an adoption application by clicking here:   adoption application.   For anyone viewing this on Petfinder, if you are interested in adopting this animal you will need to go to our website www.rosesrescue.net to fill out the online adoption application. You can usually find more pictures of the animals there too. Click on our name "Roses Rescue" in blue above to be taken directly to our website.    

Adoption Process
The first step to adopting is to fill out the Online Adoption Application at www.rosesrescue.net. After your application has been reviewed and approved, one of our volunteers will get in touch with you. As long as your application has been pre-approved, the pet's foster parent will set up a time with you to come visit the pet you're interested in. In some cases, a home visit may also be required. If all goes well, you will then sign an adoption contract, pay the adoption fee, and then your new pet is ready to go to its forever home! Dogs Adoption Fees: Mixed Breed: $125 Prison Trained Dogs: $145 Purebred: $150 no papers $165 w/papers All dogs will be current on shots (EXCEPT Rabies), and be spayed or neutered (if not of age they will come with a certificate to be done within 14 days after coming of age).
